One thing about merging vertex to last selection, which you used for your Maya style tool, is that it only works when selecting the vertex, not when selecting it with Lasso or Box selection. I always found that odd, but seems to be a Blender limitation.

Yeah, it will only merge to the active vertex by defualt, but there is an option to instead merge it to the mouse cursor and the neareast vertex.

Hey there!
Just popped in my mind, that Dangry You already made those excellent attributes like the edge and face groups (and also vertex), maybe is there a way to create a bevel modifier that calls an edge attribute, instead a vertex group, and should call it as actual edges, not vertices?
Would be so lovely 
Those attributes You made are soo life saving already!

Thank you! @Adam_Szalai
That indeed whould be awesome! But to my current knowledge it is not possible to do in Phyton. It should be possible however with either Bevel 2.0 or with this patch: https://projects.blender.org/blender/blender/pulls/117366
Hope it will not take to long, using just vertex-groups is very limiting and bevel attribute only support one bevel modifier

Thank you for this useful addon.
Iâm working in Blender after Maya and itâs hard when you donât have the functions youâre used to.
Tell me, can you make a useful addition to your addon? In Maya, you can add edge length or the distance between selected points to statistics.

Now, if only the pivot worked with all the rotations and snaps like in Maya)) but for this there is a Friendly pivot

Hi, @Uuuuu78 Thank you so much! And welcome to Blender!
I think there is a similar function already in Blender by default, but it only works with edges unfortunately, not points.
You could use the measurement tool instead I guess for points
I will look into if its possible to do a similar measurement function as Maya as well.

Thanks for the answer.
What makes Maya better than Blender is that the value is displayed in the window with general statistics (in the upper left corner and does not distract from the modeling). In Blender, the values are displayed on the edge, which already overloads the screen if the model is complex.
And using a ruler every time is tiring.
But this is my personal opinion.

I tried this in Blender 4.1.1. It wasnât a long retopo session, but it works smooth and no crashes 
Thank you @Dangry

@Dangry im currently find one kind of a bug (not really) related to UI:
If you have any custom blender theme, when âToggle Retopologyâ will overwrite colors to default one.
1 Like
@SoundDifferent Yeah, its a known issue, its a bit tricky to fix honestly since in the background its just changing theme colors, and the previous color are not stored anywhere. A bit hacky to say the least.
Perhaps it could export the theme colors it changes to a .json and then restore the values, not perfect but could work. Its been a todo for a long time, could look into it soon when I have time

Hi again @SoundDifferent I made a fix that seem to work So now it should restore the theme settings properly after toggling the retopolgy overlays.
I went with just storing the user theme settings as a string in the add-on preferences instead, and then reading that string when toggling, seems to be the easiest solution.
This is a WIP version of the next update, but it should still be stable.
KeyOps-Toolkit-0.1.83.zip (89.1 KB)
(restart of Blender required for the update to take effect)
Let me know if it works and if you have any other issues/any feature request
Hey Dangry,
Just started using KeyOps, really handy feature set, thanks for making it!
I have a feature request, is it possible to add an âauto apply transformsâ toggle? Sometimes when Iâm modelling I forget to apply scale or rotation.

Hello Dangry, Iâm in love with your addon! thanks for coding it is super useful!
I wanted to request if itâs possible to add this function to the Toggle Retopology mode, I usually like to activate Face Project and Face Nearest from the Snap Indivisual Elements menu, that way I canât go outside the bounds of the mesh, once I deactivate the Toggle Retopo mode they turn off and I have to turn them again. Is there a way to keep them on at will? (maybe there is a way and Iâm not aware)
Thank you so much for your hard work!

But I guess I could add something similar, if I ever get the time, its a usefull function to have

Hello @Rya Thank you!
This is unfortunately currently not possible, it would however makes sense to have the functionality. Thanks for pointing that out, I will add it to the next update
WIP:
The previous snapping settings will now also be restored after toggling back from the retopology settings.
